Hi, first i want to thank you for with nice work...

Second, i want to ask, if it is possible to program a "second" Option maybe Jumper to set a third different base adress..
want to use a third PicoTuner Ethernetconnected.. and that is actual not possible, because i can set only 9900 and 9904 (with Jumper).

Can you give me Information or program another Firmware, that can set up with another Jumper to a different baseport?

Sorry for my english, german is my natural speech.

Thanks again and bye.. Rene DL7ZF, 73.

Hi Rene.

I have only just received the notification for your message. It must have got lost. I will make another version where the jumper sets address 9908. Will that do what you require? Do you have W5100S or W5500?

You probably know that it is possible to set the base address over Ethernet, but that disappears after power down.

Is there any way to make the base addresses configurable? E.g. with a text file like in the Pluto uploaded to the USB drive?

Configurability would be nice in cases where you might want a fixed IP address as well, without needing to access the router, which is not always possible if it isn't your own router.

Once could imagine other things as well, e.g. to power up in a specific mode sending to a specific target, handy for a repeater say.

Hi, thanks for the fast Feedback, for me i is really fine to set the jumper (for adress 9908). No Problem with it, i use the 5100-Version.

Much much Thanks to you for this useful piece of Software.

Bye... Rene :)

Windows does not seem to have an inbuilt equivalent of netcat, but this very old utility works OK. (Thanks G6HFS)
